The Energy Cup
Although tea has a considerably less amount of caffeine, it is known to boost your energy levels. It is the kick start that we all crave – it brings with it a strong and maintained focus as well as a relaxed essence. A cup of tea is more than just a drink to wake you up. It intertwines with your body and mind and gives your wellbeing a well-deserved lift whenever you need it. There is nothing wrong with needing an energy boost sometimes and at least now you know what you can rely on!
The Calming Cup
Tea is filled with natural ounces of calm that can give you that feeling of relaxation in a period of stress. It is a popular choice after a long and stressful day at work. Tea has also been scientifically proven to help cleanse the antioxidants within your system which is more often than not linked to mental health issues. What better way to cleanse your soul with natural ingredients? And to support this, tea drinkers have been said to have lower stress levels. Why not jump on board the tea train – destination: tranquillity!
This is a positive itself – how could you say no to a cup filled with goodness?
It takes 3 minutes!
Although this isn’t a health benefit, it is a perk! The tea making process only takes a few minutes of your day and can provide you with lifelong benefits. By boiling the kettle and adding either a tea bag or tea leaves – your cup of goodness is ready to be gulped.
